If the vehicle speed exceeds about 20
km/h (12 mph) with the driver or front
passenger's seat belt unfastened, a
warning beep sounds continuously. If
the seat belt remains unfastened, the
beep sound stops once and then
continues for about 90 seconds. The
beep stops after the driver or front
passenger's seat belt is fastened.
Until a seat belt is fastened or a given
period of time has elapsed, the beep
sound will not stop even if the vehicle
speed falls below 20 km/h (12 mph).
NOTE
Placing heavy items on the front
passenger's seat may cause the front
passenger's seat belt warning
function to operate depending on
the weight of the item.
To allow the front passenger seat
weight sensor to function properly,
do not place and sit on an additional
seat cushion on the front passenger's
seat. The sensor may not function

NOTE
Tires degrade over time, even when
they are not being used on the road. It
is recommended that tires generally be
replaced when they are 6 years or
older. Heat caused by hot climates or
frequent high loading conditions can
accelerate the aging process. You
should replace the spare tire when you
replace the other road tires due to the
aging of the spare tire. The period in
which the tire was manufactured (both
week and year) is indicated by a 4-digit
number.
Refer to Tire Labeling on page 8-23.
▼Safety Practices
The way you drive has a great deal to
do with your tire mileage and safety.
So cultivate good driving habits for
your own benefit.
Observe posted speed limits and
drive at speeds that are safe for the
existing weather conditions
Avoid fast starts, stops and turnsAvoid potholes and objects on the
road
Do not run over curbs or hit the tire
against the curb when parking
CAUTION
If you feel a sudden vibration or ride
disturbance while driving or you
suspect your tire or vehicle has been
damaged, immediately reduce your
speed. Drive with caution until you can
safely pull
off the road. Stop and
inspect the tire for damage. If the tire
is under-inflated or damaged, deflate
it, remove the tire and rim and replace
it with your spare tire. If you cannot
detect a cause, have the vehicle towed
to the nearest vehicle or tire dealer to
have the vehicle inspected.

WARNING
Do not tow a trailer with this vehicle:
Towing a trailer with this vehicle is
dangerous because it has not been
designed to tow a trailer and doing so
will
affect the drive system which could
result in vehicle damage.
This section will guide you in the
proper loading of your vehicle, to keep
your loaded vehicle weight within its
design rating capability. Properly
loading your vehicle will provide
maximum return of vehicle design
performance. Before loading your
vehicle, familiarize yourself with the
following terms for determining your
vehicle's weight ratings, from the
vehicle's Safety Certification Label and
Tire and Load Information Label:
WARNING
Overloaded Vehicle:
Overloading a vehicle is dangerous.
The results of overloading can have
serious consequences in terms of
passenger safety. Too much weight on
a vehicle's suspension system can
cause spring or shock absorber failure,
brake failure, handling or steering
problems, irregular tire wear, tire
failure or other damage.

Overloading makes a vehicle harder to
drive and control. It also increases the
distance required for stopping. In cases
of serious overloading , brakes can fail
completely, particularly on steep
grades. The load a tire will carry safely
is a combination of the size of the tire,
its load range, and corresponding
inflation pressure.
Never overload the vehicle and always
observe the vehicle's weight ratings
from the vehicle's Safety Certification
and Tire and Load Information labels.Base Curb Weight is the weight of the
vehicle including a full tank of fuel
and all standard equipment. It does
not include passengers, cargo, or
optional equipment.

Vehicle Curb Weight is the weight of
your new vehicle when you picked it
up from your dealer plus any
aftermarket equipment.

PAY LOA D
Pay l o a d is the combination weight of
cargo and passengers that the vehicle
is designed to carry. The maximum
payload for your vehicle can be found
on the Tire and Load Information label
on the driver's door frame or door
pillar. Look for “THE COMBINATION
WEIGHT OF OCCUPANTS AND
CARGO SHOULD NEVER EXCEED XXX
kg or XXX lbs” for your maximum
payload. The payload listed on the tire
label is the maximum payload for the
vehicle as built by the assembly plant.
If any aftermarket or dealer installed
equipment has been installed on the
vehicle, the weight of the equipment
must be subtracted from the payload
listed on the tire label in order to be
accurate.

SAMPLE

CARGO
Cargo Weight includes all weight
added to the Base Curb Weight,
including cargo and optional
equipment.

The cargo weight limit decreases
depending on the number of vehicle
occupants. The cargo weight limit can
be calculated by subtracting the total
weight of the vehicle occupants from
the “combination weight of occupants
and cargo should never exceed” value
on the tire label.

Examples: Based on a single occupant
weight of 68 kg (150 lbs), and a value
of 385 kg (849 lbs) for the
“combination weight of occupants and
cargo should never exceed”:
The cargo weight limit with one
occupant is 385 kg (849 lbs) － 68 kg
(150 lbs) = 317 kg (699 lbs)
The cargo weight limit with two
occupants is 385 kg (849 lbs) － (68 ×
2) kg ( (150 × 2) lbs) = 249 kg (549
lbs)
If the weight of the occupant increases,
the cargo weight limit decreases by
that much.

GAW (Gross Axle Weight) is the total
weight placed on each axle (front and
rear) - including vehicle curb weight
and all payload.

GAWR (Gross Axle Weight Rating) is
the maximum allowable weight that
can be carried by a single axle (front or
rear). These numbers are shown on
the Safety Compliance Certification
Label located on the driver's door
frame or door pillar. The total load on
each axle must never exceed its
GAWR.

GVW
GVW (Gross Vehicle Weight) is the
Vehicle Curb Weight + cargo +
passengers.

GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating)
is the maximum allowable weight of
the fully loaded vehicle (including all
options, equipment, passengers and
cargo). The GVWR is shown on the
Safety Compliance Certification Label
located on the driver's door frame or
door pillar. The GVW must never
exceed the GVWR.

WARNING
Never Exceed Axle Weight Rating
Limits:
Exceeding the Safety Certification
Label axle weight rating limits is
dangerous and could result in death or
serious injury as a result of substandard
vehicle handling, performance, engine,
transmission and/or structural
damage, serious damage to the
vehicle, or loss of control.
Always keep the vehicle within the axle
weight rating limits.

GCW
GCW (Gross Combination Weight) is
the weight of the loaded vehicle
(GVW).

GCWR (Gross Combination Weight
Rating) is the maximum allowable
weight of the vehicle - including all
cargo and passengers - that the vehicle
can handle without risking damage.
The GCW must never exceed the
GCWR.

WARNING
Never Exceed GVWR or GAWR
Specifications:
Exceeding the GVWR or the GAWR
specified on the certification label is
dangerous. Exceeding any vehicle
rating limitation could result in a
serious accident, injury, or damage to
the vehicle.
Do not use replacement tires with
lower load carrying capacities than the
originals because they may lower the
vehicle's GVWR and GAWR
limitations. Replacement tires with a
higher limit than th e originals do not
increase the GVWR and GAWR
limitations.
Never exceed the GVWR or the GAWR
specified on the certification label.
